Ok this doesn't work, because reservation_obj needs to allow allocations.
But compared to our current lock stealing trickery the above scheme
reduces possibilities to shrink, or at least rate-limit command submission
somewhat. Not sure how to best tackle that.

Either way a fs_reclaim_*() trick to annotate reservation_obj would be
good ...
